Definitions
- the present invention refers to a method for checking the compatibility of a mobile station and a functional unit; a mobile station and a functional unit.
- the functional unit is a part or program to be installed in the mobile station, most preferably a separate device or program which is connected to the mobile station.
- Functional units may be connected to present mobile stations for example by accessories, such as computers or PCMCIA (Personal Computer Memory Card International Association) data adapters at least by using electrical cables and IR (Infra Red) transmission paths.
- accessories such as computers or PCMCIA (Personal Computer Memory Card International Association) data adapters at least by using electrical cables and IR (Infra Red) transmission paths.
- the mechanics and accessory connectors are similar in various devices.
- the user of these devices has to know the compatibility or incompatibility of the functional units.
- the functional unit may be an application, which is directly added to the mobile station (e.g. a programmably storable application), or an application in a separate device, which is to be connected with the mobile station.
- the functional unit may also be a software application to be used in a computer, or an application to be used in a data network or a cellular telephone network.
- Mobile stations have identification codes for the identification of the device.
- the identification code is a so-called IMEI code (International Mobile station Equipment Identity) which is determined in GSM 03.03 standard.
- a reference code is calculated both in the mobile station and the functional unit with the help of a predetermined counting algorithm by using the identification code of the mobile station and a random number, which may be, for example, an exact time.
- the identification code and the random number are transmitted to the functional unit in a check message, and the reference code is transmitted to the mobile station in a response message.
- the reference codes are compared in the mobile station, and the comparison is used to determine, whether the functional unit is compatible or not.
- the counting algorithm is saved to the memory of the mobile station and the functional unit, and it cannot be read from the outside.
- An advantage of the invention is that a mobile station, e.g. a mobile telephone, communicator or radio card, checks the properties of the functional unit, such as its type and other necessary data, e.g. HW (HardWare) and SW (SoftWare) versions so that it is possible to know whether the unit is compatible or not, and how the connection is made to the unit.
- the mobile station carries automatically out the necessary determinations for a known and supported functional unit, and the user does not have to worry about the functionability of the equipment.
- the check may also include testing the unit's ability to function. The results are preferably shown to the user for example by signal lights or on the display of the mobile station.
- a further advantage of the invention is that using a fixed identification code, e.g. IMEI code, makes it possible to specify the functional unit so that it operates only with the mobile stations identified by a known code.
- the software of the functional unit can be programmed to include the fixed identification codes of the mobile stations that the functional unit operates with. This serves as an extra confirmation to interoperability in addition with the calculation algorithm included in the funtional unit.
- a functional unit is connected to a mobile station.
- the functional unit requests 101B checking from the mobile station when it is connected to the mobile station.
- the mobile station generates a check message 102 that is transmitted to a functional unit 103.
- a first reference code 104 is calculated in the mobile station.
- the functional unit calculates a second reference code 105.
- a response message 106 is generated in the functional unit, which includes the said second reference code calculated by the functional unit, and the response message is transmitted from the functional unit 107 to the mobile station.
- the reference codes calculated in the mobile station and the functional unit are compared in the mobile station 108. On the basis of the comparison, either a positive or a negative decision is made on the compatibility of the functional unit.
- a functional status suitable for the functional unit is determined 109 in the mobile station, a functional unit 110 is activated, and preferably a message 111 relaying this information is written out on the display of the mobile station.
- the functional unit, or its interface is locked 112 in a blocked status, and preferably information 113 is written out that the functional unit is not available.
- Fig. 2 there is shown a block diagram of the parts of a mobile station 201 and a functional unit 207 that are essential for the present invention.
- the functional unit is an accessory 207 including an application.
- the mobile station 201 comprises a memory 202, such as Flash and RAM, a microprocessor 203, a bus interface 204, a display equipment 205, and an internal auxiliary circuit bus 206 of the processor.
- the mobile station also includes optionally a signal light 213, or some other indicator for indicating the compatibility.
- Memory 202 stores the identification code (IMEI code) for the mobile station, the counting algorithm and necessary parameters, such as the generated random number and the calculated reference code.
- the microprocessor 203 exchanges data with the other units 202, 204, 205 in the mobile station via the auxiliary circuit bus 206.
- IMEI code identification code
- the accessory 207 includes a memory 208, such as Flash, a microprocessor 209, an auxiliary circuit bus 210 of the processor, and a bus interface 211.
- the memory 208 stores e.g. the application the microprocessor is running, and the counting algorithm and necessary parameters, such as the calculated reference code of the accessory.
- the microprocessor 209 exchanges data with other units 208, 211 within the accessory via the auxiliary bus interface 210. In case a functional unit is to be added to the mobile station, the functional unit is stored to the memory 202 of the mobile station, and no connection to an external accessory is needed.
- the interface bus 212 between a mobile station and an accessory is realized e.g. by an electric cable or IR (InfraRed) light.
- the interface bus 212 may, for example, be placed on a circuit card, or it may be an internal conductor within an integrated circuit.
- the processor 209 of the accessory detects a connection and the accessory 207 transmits a request to check the accessory to the mobile station. Then the check of the accessory 207 is to be started.
- the processor 203 of the mobile station generates a check message which is transmitted to the accessory 207 via the bus interface 205 and the interface bus 212.
- the processor 203 of the mobile station calculates the first reference code by using the counting algorithm and the identification code such as the mobile station unique IMEI code.
- the accessory 207 receives the check message from the interface bus 212 to the bus interface 211. From the bus interface 211, the check message is transmitted to the microprocessor 209.
- the microprocessor 209 retrieves the counting algorithm from the memory 208, and calculates a second reference code on the basis of the information in the check message.
- the microprocessor 209 forms a response message containing the second reference code, and transmits it via the bus interface 211 and the interface bus 212 to the mobile station 201.
- the microprocessor 203 of the mobile station receives the response message coming from the interface bus 212 via the bus interface 204.
- the first and the second reference code, received from the accessory are compared in the microprocessor 203. On the basis of the comparison, it is concluded, whether the accessory 207 is compatible with the mobile station 201.
- the bus interface 204 in the mobile station is set to a state of standby corresponding with the accessory 207.
- the state of standby means, for example, the selection of the data transmission protocol and user connection and opening the interface.
- On the display 205 there is shown a statement about compatibility. In an opposite case, the display 205 shows a statement about incompatibility.
- the functional unit is a program.
- the functional unit is installed to the mobile station 201.
- the program is first in form of a data package, which is transferred to the memory 202 of the mobile station 201.
- the data package is checked in the mobile station 201 according to, for example, public and secret key. The check may be carried out, for example, by using a PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) method based on the RSA (Rivesti-Shamir-Aldeman) algorithm. Thus it is checked that the data package is of a correct type.
- the processor 203 of the mobile station provides the data package with a code, which it compares with a code of an allowed data package it possesses. In case the codes are uniform, unloading of the data in the data package and its installation in the mobile station 201 are allowed.
- the processor 203 of the mobile station runs the original check program from the memory 202 and generates a check message, which is transferred logically to the new installed program.
- the processor 203 of the mobile station calculates the first reference code on the basis of its own original data.
- the same processor 203 calculates a second reference code by using the algorithm of the new loaded program, and forms a response message, which it transmits logically to the check program.
- the algorithm of the installed program is most preferably done so that it functions only in connection with a certain mobile station.
- the identification code of the mobile station is used for this purpose.
- the original check program of the mobile station 201 receives the response message and compares the first reference code it calculated with the second reference code calculated by the functional unit. On the basis of the comparison it is decided, whether the functional unit is compatible with the mobile station 201. In case the functional unit is compatible with the mobile station 201, a logical approval is set to the running of the program.
- the display 205 shows a statement about compatibility. In an opposite case, the display 205 shows a statement about incompatibility.
- the mobile station 201 informs, when necessary, and preferably by using the SMS (Service Management System), the code of the mobile station and the installed program to the server of the program manufacturer. Then the said server registers the program in question to the mobile station.
- SMS Service Management System
- the check message is transmitted from the mobile station 201 to the server of the manufacturer of the program to be installed, the server also calculating the second reference code.
- the SMS Service Management System is preferably used for the transmission.
- the first reference code may be calculated in the mobile station 201 by using its original counting algorithm, or a counting algorithm included for the program.
- the said server generates a response message, which is transmitted to the mobile station 201.
- the mobile station 201 compares the reference codes and decides on the activation of the program, as described above. After the possible activation, the said server registers the program in question to the mobile station.
- Fig. 3 there is shown an example of a check message the processor 203 generates on the basis of data included in the memory 202.
- the message includes in one or more bytes message code 301, name of the mobile station manufacturer/agent 302, e.g. "FIRM”, IMEI code 303, product code 304, hardware version 305, software version 306, and random number 307.
- Fig. 4 there is shown an example of a response message the processor 209 generates on the basis of data included in the memory 208.
- the message includes message code 401, name of the accessory manufacturer/agent 402, serial number of the accessory 403, text possibly shown on the display of the mobile station 404, e.g. "@FIRMA accessory", hardware version 405, software version 406, and reference code 407.
- Fig. 5 there is shown as an example a flow diagram of a counting algorithm for a reference code.
- the initial values of the algorithm are read: the IMEI code and the random number.
- the mobile station keeps an IMEI code which is unique for every mobile station, and forms a random number, so that these are locally available.
- the accessory receives these initial values in the check message.
- all or certain set numbers are separated for use from the IMEI code.
- the numbers separated for use are divided into groups, which are arranged to a table at 503.
- the random number formed in the mobile station is added to the table at 504.
- a set number of bytes is transmitted bit by bit 505 to a set direction, for example on the basis of a number determined by two bits.
- the next operation is dependent on e.g. one or two bits of a certain number in the table at 506 so that these bits are used to determine, whether a first logical operation according to phase 507, or a second logical operation according to phase 508, is carried out to a set block of the table.
- the second number of the logical operation to be carried out is the above-mentioned number in the random number; it again is determined according to whichever operation (507 or 508) will be carried out.
- the starting point of the table block which is the object of the operation, is determined by the number in the random number.
- the result of the logical operation is transferred to the location, from where the first numbers of the operation were taken.
- a third logical operation is carried out among all the numbers of the table; they produce an intermediate result, which is saved.
- specific binary operations are run between the table numbers and the said intermediate result, which results in the final result in form of a key number, 511.
- the check message formed in the mobile station includes, according to Fig. 3, i.a. name of the mobile station manufacturer/agent 302, IMEI code 303, product code 304, version data 305, 306, and random number 307.
- the check message formed in the accessory includes according to Fig. 4 i.a. name of the accessory manufacturer/agent 402, serial number 403, text 404 shown on the display of the mobile station, version data 405, 406, and reference code 407 calculated by the counting algorithm.
- the functional unit may be a data card, but also any other functional unit capable of data processing may be controlled by using the method of the invention.
- a data conversion application for sending data wirelessly may be included in the data card, or it may be directly loaded to the computer, which is connected with the mobile station.
- the functional unit may also be a part of the mobile station.
- the counting algorithm may be any algorithm, which preferably takes into account the initial parameters, and gives a reference code as a result. So that own reference codes can be generated by different equipment combinations, it is preferred for the algorithm to be multi-phase, or otherwise of a type enabling the reference code to achieve a large amount of different values. Most preferably, the functional unit uses the same counting algorithm as the mobile station.
- the check and response messages exchanged by the mobile station and the functional unit may also include other information, for example the type of the mobile telephone system and the functional unit, and the serial numbers for the equipment.
